Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for tempering skin areas of the human body, with a pillow that can be placed on the body and has a liquid channel system with an inlet and an outlet opening, with an inlet line connected to the inlet opening and a return line connected to the outlet opening, further with a supply device which comprises a thermally insulated container with a lid and a pump which is connected on the suction side to the inside of the container, and with a supply connection which is connected to the pump and with which the feed line can be coupled and with a design which is the return line connects to the container.
- the object of the invention is to provide a temperature control device of the type mentioned at the outset, with which a plurality of therapy cushions can be charged with temperature-controlled liquid from a supply device at the same time and nevertheless an individual loading of the cushion with temperature-controlled liquid is possible.
- the shut-off valves are designed as metering valves which are assigned to the feed lines.
- the individual shut-off valves can be opened finely or continuously so that the individual cushions can be charged with different amounts of heat or cold per unit of time.This also indirectly allows the cushions to be set differently in temperature.
- the cover of the supply device preferably has a number of openings in the circumferential area above the container equal to the number of supply connections provided, the openings each having a cross section at least equal to the outer cross section of the return lines, so that the return lines can be simply inserted through the openings into the container. The return lines then drain directly into the container
- shut-off valves are designed as automatically opening check valves when the supply lines are coupled.
- the liquid channel systems of the several cushions have flow resistances which are at least approximately proportional to the cushion surfaces. This ensures that the flow cross-sections are smaller in the case of small cushions, for example nose and cheek support cushions, than in the case of large ones Pillows, e.g. for thigh bandages, so that the liquid flow rates are at least approximately proportional to the respective pillow sizes.
- the invention further relates to a coupling device for connecting a coupling part of a double hose line having an inner hose and an outer hose to a supply connection.
- Coupling device is the subject of claim 5. These coupling devices for connecting the therapy cushions are particularly advantageous, since for each Pillow only a coupling device is required, which connects both the inlet line and the return line to the supply device, so that incorrect connection of the lines is avoided.

- the coupling part 1 2 has a head 1 6 and a foot 1 8.
- the head 1 6 consists of a flange bushing in which an outer hose 22 of a double hose 20 by means of a clamping sleeve 26 is held sealingly.
- An inner tube 24 passes through the clamping sleeve 26 with a radial distance.
- the feed line 5 (FIG. 2) is formed by the inner tube 24.
- the return line 6 is formed in the annular space between the outer tube 22 and the inner tube 24 same distance from the main axis.
- shut-off valves are located in all three chambers 28, 30 arranged, the valve body 32 and 36 and valve springs 34 and 38 have the valve springs are supported on the back, provided with perforated rings support bodies 40 and 42 respectively.
- a flange bushing 44 is pressed at the top, onto which the inner tube 24 fits. Thanks to the two-part design of the coupling part 1 2, the double tube 20 can be assembled very easily, because the outer tube 22 is sealed in the head 1 6 and the inner tube 24 becomes tight pulled out of the outer hose 22 before assembly of the parts, which is possible due to its spiral hose design and plugged onto the flange bushing 44 and centered in the outer hose 22 when head 1 6 and foot 1 8 are pushed together
- the foot 1 8 has an upper circular-cylindrical outer circumferential surface 46, which forms a press fit with the inner circumferential surface 48 of the head. After the two parts 1 6, 1 8 have been pressed together, the coupling part 1 2 is sealed.
- the foot 1 8 Approximately in the middle area, the foot 1 8 has an outer ring flange 50, to which a lower peripheral surface 52 with an elliptical or oval outline is connected at the bottom. This peripheral surface 52 is closed by an end wall 54, so that a pot-shaped structure results.
- the three chambers 28, 30 have mouth openings in this end wall 54, which are designed as valve seats for the valve bodies 32, 36.
- an O-ring 56 is arranged in the latter
- the supply connection 1 4 is designed as a coupling socket, which has a circular cylindrical outer circumference 58 with radially outwardly adjoining and upwardly extending latching projections 60. Inside the supply connection 1 4 there is a cylindrical recess, the circumferential surface 62 of which extends to the outer circumferential surface 52 of the Foot 1 8 of the coupling part 1 2 is complementary. In the exemplary embodiment, this recess is elliptically contoured.
- This recess ends in an end wall 64, in which there is a central channel 68 formed in a connecting piece 66 and two radially spaced apart from one another Mouth opposite additional channels 70 in the form of perforated rings
- a valve body 72 with a sealing ring and a valve spring 74 are arranged, which form a shut-off valve
- the mouth of the central channel 68 in the end plate 64 is surrounded by an open top groove, in which an O-ring 76 is inserted.
- a plunger 78 extends coaxially upward from the valve body 72 into the depression enclosed by the peripheral surface 62.
- the two valve bodies 36 of the coupling part 1 2 have downwardly directed plungers 80
- a brief, further sliding stroke of the coupling part 1 2 has the result that the shut-off valves with the valve springs 32, 36 of the coupling part 1 2 open This position is shown in FIG. 9.
- the peripheral flange 50 engages in a first latching step 82 of the upstanding latching projection 60. Since the valve spring 74 in the central channel 68 of the supply connection 1 4 is stronger than the valve spring 34 in the central chamber 28 of the coupling part 1 2, the valve member 72 in the central channel 68 remains in the closed position and the valve member 32 in the central chamber 28 of the coupling part 1 2 comes to rest on a stroke limiting pin 84. Liquid can thus run out of the inner tube 24 and the annular space between the inner tube 24 and the outer tube 22 through the channels 70.
- the valve member 72 is now lifted off the valve seat, so that under pressure standing liquid can flow through the central channel 68 of the supply connection 1 4 into the central chamber 28 of the coupling part 1 2
- the flange 50 locks in a second locking step 86 on the raised locking projections 60.
- This position is shown in FIG. 1 0 shown
- the central chamber 28 is aligned with the central channel 68 axially in the main axis of the coupling and the two additional chambers 30 in the coupling part 1 2 are also axially aligned with the additional channels 70.
- the supply device 1 1 4 has a cover 90, into which five supply connections 1 4 are inserted from the outside, and an insert 92 is fastened to the cover 90 from below by inserting an end-to-end seal , which has a number of bores 94 into which the connecting pieces 66 of the five supply connections 1 4 engage in a sealing manner thanks to the O-rings inserted.
- the 5 bores 94 are connected to one another by a bottom groove system forming a supply chamber 96, which communicates with a central hose connection 98 which is screwed to a cover plate 100 which closes the supply chamber 96 in the insert 92.
- the supply chamber 96 has a branch groove 1 02, which leads to a chamber 1 04, which communicates with a pressure relief valve 1 06, which is held in the cover plate 1 00.
- the insert 92 has, on the side facing the cover 90, a large-area pocket 108 covering the area of all five supply connections 1 4, into which the channels 70 of the supply connections 1 4 can drain freely.
- a hose nipple 1 1 2 which penetrates a corresponding hole in the cover plate 100, is screwed into an emptying hole 1 1 0 of the insert 92.
- FIG. 1 4 illustrates that the insert 92 is screwed to each of the 5 supply connections 1 4 by two long screws on the cover 90 and the cover plate 1 00 is screwed to the insert 92 by means of six shorter edge screws.
- a hose 1 1 7 coming from the pressure side of the pump 1 1 9 is connected to the central connection 98 and a corresponding hose which is plugged onto the nipple 1 1 2 leads back into the container 1 1 5.
- the supply connections 1 4 are shown in the figures with simple outlet channels 70, since these can be emptied into the common pocket 1 08 in the insert 92. It goes without saying that the supply connection 1 4 can also be designed in accordance with the coupling part 1 2 for connection to a double hose 20.
- the supply connection 1 4 also has a head 1 6 and a foot 1 8 and instead of the channels 70 valve chambers 30 are provided as in the coupling part 1 2.
- the additional return valves in the supply connection are also blocked, so that no liquid can escape from the two double hoses 20 to be connected to one another.
- the coupling device makes it possible for the coupling part 1 2 to be pulled out of the supply connection 1 4, the shut-off valves closing automatically before the seal between the coupling parts is broken. If, according to the exemplary embodiment, the supply connection is located in the cover 90 of the supply device 1 1 4, the remaining liquid can flow out of the supply connection into the container 1 1 5, so that no liquid is lost.
- the shut-off valves are only opened when the coupling part 1 2 is in the defined coupling position. Incorrect operations are therefore impossible.
- the shut-off valve in the supply connection 1 4 is opened in the last phase of the insertion movement of the coupling part 1 2.
- a circular-cylindrical design of the circumferential surfaces of coupling part 1 2 and supply connection 1 4 is also readily possible.
- axial guidance of coupling part 1 2 in supply connection 1 4, e.g. by means of axial ribs and axial grooves, is advantageous, so that a coupling only in one or at most two by 1 Rotation positions offset by 80 ° is possible.
- the axial guide should be released so that the coupling part 1 2 can be rotated into the actual coupling position by, for example, 45 ° or 90 °.
